Capítulo 14: Chapter 14: Kung Fu
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Bumming a meal was much simpler than the siblings imagined.
They had just packed their luggage when the host came over to ask if they wanted to have lunch together.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Gu Miaomiao raised her little chubby hand, extremely excited.
Smelling the aroma of food, she left her brother still fixing his hair and ran outside with a pitter-patter, disappearing in no time.
Gu Che: "..."
[Gu Che: Sis, do you love food more or me?]
[Miaomiao: Of course, it's the food, hahaha]
[It's rare to see the handsome guy looking so clueless, hurry and take a screenshot]
[Already taken]
[To the person in front, please share]
Tuanzi dashed to the kitchen, holding onto the door frame, poking out her round little head.
Their livestream channel focused the camera here, occasionally switching angles, letting the audience appreciate the top influencer cluelessly searching for his sister.
The top influencer, cluelessly searching for his sister, while the sister peeked at food, made the audience burst into laughter.
A middle-aged woman was cooking several dishes of home-cooked meals.
As the spicy chicken came out of the pot, she couldn't help but sneeze.
"Achoo!"
The woman paused, why did she hear two sneezes?
Turning around, she saw a little girl standing at the door, eyes burning as she stared at the food on the small table nearby.
Her face was fair and tender, with a touch of baby fat, looking quite chubby. Her bright black eyes seemed to turn into drumsticks.
"Are you the little guest who's staying over?"
The middle-aged woman came over, "Come in quickly, if you're hungry, you can eat a bit first, we'll bring it to the dining room later."
Tuanzi touched the corner of her lips, smiling shyly.
"No need, Miaomiao will wait for second brother to eat together."
She very familiarly moved close to the stove, "Auntie, let Miaomiao help you with the fire, Miaomiao is really good at making a fire."
The middle-aged woman was skeptical, as she expertly continued frying rice, she laughed, "You city folks don't use this kind of stove."
"But Miaomiao is not a city person."
Tuanzi earnestly picked up a stick of wood and carefully placed it into the stove.
"Miaomiao used to live with Master in the mountains, our stove was much more worn out than this."
The middle-aged woman was surprised, "Master? Mountains? What skill did you learn from your Master?"
Tuanzi rubbed her cheeks, "Hehe, nothing much, just some martial arts."
[Is she telling the truth or kidding?]
[Probably true, she seems so honest]
[So, back then Miaomiao fell into the river, was saved, and lived in the mountains learning skills from a Master?]
[How fantastical is this?]
[The world is vast, nothing is too strange. Weren't there news reports recently about some reclusive experts preferring to live in the mountains? Maybe Miaomiao had such an encounter]
[I mean, how can you believe whatever a kid says? If she says she knows martial arts, she really does?]
Tuanzi quickly became close with Mrs. Lin, who was cooking and the lady of the house. Because of this, she even got a big drumstick in advance. Tuanzi couldn't resist and took it, gnawing on it delightfully.
"Delicious, so delicious. Mrs. Lin, your cooking skills are amazing."
Outside the kitchen, Gu Che leaned against the wall, not going in to disturb.
[It feels like Gu Che is a bit hurt]
[If what Miaomiao said is true, then her past few years weren't easy, there's nothing in the mountains]
After lunch, the five groups of guests took a short rest.
Once rested, the host eagerly assigned tasks, similar to the previous season. The kids would go to the village to find ingredients while the parents prepared dinner.
The task mainly tested the little guests' communication skills and the parents' cooking skills.
The host: "Alright, now kids, take the baskets and go find ingredients."
Finding food?
Tuanzi immediately ran to invite Liu Yue.
Liu Yue was a bit reluctant, didn't want to leave her sister, but seeing the brave little sister younger than her, she immediately forgot her sadness and ran along with her.
Liu Man: "... Is this really my sister?"
Gu Che: "... Is my sister not even saying goodbye to me?"
The three little boys teamed up and set off too.
Tang Tian rubbed his nose, "This surprised me, I thought I'd have to coax him."
Being left behind by his son, he felt a bit strange.
Su Hanjiang laughed, "Your kid, at such a young age, he's quite imposing."
Zhou Yan took the initiative to chat: "What dishes are you good at cooking? I don't have much skill, at most I can make some home-cooked dishes, I'll just be making a fool of myself later."
In front of the camera, even if you don't like the person, the old-timers never show it.
Su Hanjiang: "I can still whip up a few home-cooked dishes."
Having interacted with Gu Che before, he quite admired the other's temperament, so he naturally tossed the conversation over, "What about you, little Gu?"
Little Gu wasn't there.
Su Hanjiang: "!"
Tang Tian: "Where did he go? How did he vanish in the blink of an eye?"
The main camera was now showing several parents, so the audience had to switch to Gu Che's livestream, and saw Gu Miaomiao holding Liu Yue's hand, excitedly knocking on the door of a household.
The camera panned, and not far from them around a corner, a certain top-tier idol was peeking out.
[...]
[Honestly, when I heard about this task, I thought Gu Che would be very firm in telling his sister to perform well, but... it's indescribable]
[In the end, he followed her secretly]
The cameraman following was also curious and took the initiative to ask him, "Mr. Gu, why did you follow them?"
Gu Che touched his nose, "She's unfamiliar with the place, I'm afraid she won't adapt and hide away to cry."
The camera panned again, and the tear-prone Tuanzi was adorably asking the homeowner, "Grandpa, do you have eggplants and tomatoes at home?"
Another camera angle shift, revealing Gu Che's cool and aloof face showing a slight hint of worry.
[...]
[His sister blinds everyone with cuteness]
[Didn't expect you to be this kind of top-tier idol!]
Tuanzi successfully asked for several types of vegetables.
But she wasn't in a hurry to leave, "Grandpa, is there anything we can do for you?"
She ruffled her hair, "Master said, you shouldn't get anything without effort, we can't just take your things for free."
As she said this, Liu Yue also felt it was inappropriate.
"I can't dance in the next few days, but I can sing. My sister is a super talented singer, and I've learned several songs from her!"
Tuanzi was quite troubled, she heard that her second brother could sing, dance, and act, but she only knew martial arts and a few other skills.
"Miaomiao, Miaomiao can show you Water Floating!"
She marketed herself, "Miaomiao also knows Tai Chi Boxing and Xingyi Boxing. Grandpa, do you want to see?"
Elderly people are always especially tolerant with kids.
This grandpa actually called his wife over, and each brought a chair to sit in line, waiting to watch the performance.
In Liu Yue's mind, Tuanzi was very brave, and she believed what Tuanzi said.
"Then, I'll sing and you perform?"
"Sure, sure."
Tuanzi said naturally and openly, "Xingyi Boxing is divided into Three Body Posture, Five Elements Fist, and Twelve Forms Fist. Miaomiao still has to look for more vegetables later, so I'll just perform a simple Five Elements Fist."
[Has she really learned many skills from the master on the mountain?]
[Exaggerating, just a little kid, just like Tuanzi, with chubby hands and legs, what can they know]
[Obviously taught by a certain top idol, probably trying to create a child star?]
[Anyway, I feel like she's bragging. So young and bragging, that needs to change]
[Maybe the top idol wants to see this kind of result]
[To you in front, why are you so malicious towards a child?]
Five Elements Fist consists of Punching, Drilling Fist, Beng Fist, Cannon Fist, and Cross Fist.
Among them, Punching is a strong strike fist, divided into double and single hand punches.
This form of boxing has high requirements, with moves needing downward striking force, forward slicing force, and backwards wrenching force.
As the audience argued noisily, Tuanzi put away her smile and stood a thick wooden stick vertically on the stone, about the same height as her.
With her feet in line, she warmed up for a few seconds, and under the lens, her cheeks' flesh visibly tightened.
"Hah!"
The left hand struck out, followed swiftly by the right.
First, Bright Force then Dark Force, the front foot advanced while the back foot pushed, repeating this three times, she closed in on the log, and with her final punch, the wind swept through, splitting the log into pieces.
[!!!]
[I just blinked, what did I miss]
[How did the log suddenly split into pieces]
[I was just staring at her chubby face, isn't it just a soft punch]
[Soft my foot, didn't you hear the sound captured live? The sound of each punch hitting the air was loud, if this hit someone, that would be entertaining]
[So, after falling into the water, she was really picked up by a master from the outside world and taken as a disciple?]
[I've watched some bloggers do Five Elements Fist, it looks soft with no power, how come hers is so impressive?]
